Take the quiz: Glassbooth

As expected, Ron Paul was my #1 candidate, followed by Mike Gravel and Dennis Kucinich.

When I first saw the link on Shep’s blog, I figured it would be another stupid 3-question quiz that spit out a semi-relevant answer, but I was pleasantly surprised to see it was very well organized and spot-on with my results at least.

While I highly recommend you check out Ron Paul’s position on the issues1, at the very least you should go into this election with an informed opinion, regardless of the candidate you choose.

Remember, primaries are coming up in under a month, so time is running out!

  1. I really think that if you objectively look at reality, you’ll find he’s the best possible candidate [back]

As a follow up to my last post, I thought I’d post the list of brief facts about Ron Paul that came on one of the info cards. It’s really a great representation of some of the things he’s stood up for during his long congressional career.

  • He voted against the Iraq war.
  • He voted against the Patriot Act and a National ID Card.
  • He voted against the Military Commissions Act.
  • He voted against regulating the internet.
  • He has never voted to raise taxes.
  • He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
  • He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
  • He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
  • He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
  • He has never taken a government-paid junket.
  • He is against amnesty and in favor of securing our borders.
  • He is against the North American Union, NAFTA, GATT, WTO and CAFTA.
  • He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
  • He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

Can you name another candidate who’s done half of that?

Please, check out some more information on Ron Paul. I think you’ll agree he’s the best candidate for the job.

I highly recommend the Youtube channel. Hear his stance in his own words and realize the passion he has for restoring America to its former glory.

Who is Ron Paul?

I’ll be wearing it out tonight, even though it’s supposed to be in the 40’s. Hopefully I can find a long-sleeve shirt to wear under it.

Even though they sell separately on the store, the folks at Ron Paul HQ tossed in a couple of matching ‘Who is Ron Paul?’ pins and cards with info on him. Kick ass! In the next month or so, I’ll probably be ordering a sweatshirt version.
